■©I Vhe CALDRONETTE J© Orchestra Although Madison High School has many groups, one of the most inter- esting is the orchestra. This year our membership has decreased, but outside of the fact that we cannot make so much noise, we are doing nearly as much as we did last year. Four of our members are organizing a dance orchestra. The students are: Robert Adams, Muriel Goddard, Harold l)unn and Caroline Henninge. Last year the members decided that those who had been in the orchestra were to receive pins. The i in which was chosen is in the shape of a lvre. Harold l)unn, Muriel Goddard, Robert Adams and Caroline Henninge received pins this year. Below is the complete membership for ’32 and ’33: Wendell Atkins Melvin Keener . . Hubert Adams .

Entries were from the Home Economics and Agriculture classes. There were many town people interested, who also entered things. The prizes were awarded by the business people of Madison. The cup for Home Economics went to Mrs. Althea Ferguson, who has won it twice. If she wins it once more, she will have it to keep The largest number of points in the Home Economics classes were given to Elsie Waters, Ruth Rhodes and Margery Loring. The entries were judged by Miss Mary Lyons, Home Economics teacher of Thompson, Ohio. The entries were put in the Foods laboratory, which was decorated with rose crepe paper, and ferns from Taylor’s Green- house. The Agriculture entries were put in the agriculture room. The entries were judged by Mr. Clifford Varney of Orwell and Mr. L. L. Mountjoy of Huntsburg. The Agriculture cup was won by Joe Hejduk. The cup belongs to him now because he has won it for three consecutive years.

--— q| The CALDRONETTE j0 - Future Farmers of America c t------- President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Reporter OFFICERS .............. Russel Whipple ................ Robert Beall ................ Lovell Green .............. Lawrence Seidel Charles Garrett Sure we’re farmers, but not in the way every one seems to think of the word farmer. We like to get out and do things as well as a person in any other occupation. We don’t work all day and smoke a corn coh pipe the rest of the time. The chapter started the year with a night meeting, discussing things for our future, and bringing new members into the club. Refreshments were served afterwards, and we called it a night. Our Ag. banquet came in the first part of January. The banquet usu- ally is attended bv parents and sons, but so few mothers showed up in the previous years, that we made it a father and son banquet and invited the Kiwanis Club. Some of our boys took part, (Lovell Green and Gorden Hejduk) by giving reports of work and activities of the club. The club had an average net income per bov for the year of $50.00. Robert Zeman made the highest amount, $125.94 on acre of muskmellons. Lawrence Seidel came close for second with $124.57 from 200 leghorn pullets. The pest hunt was under way by this time. We divided the class into two groups and elected captains for each, (Gorden Hejduk and Robert Zeman). Points were given for every pest killed during the contest. The contest closed February first, but sorry to say, one side was behind. That meant that we, the losing side, would have to furnish a night’s entertainment and refreshments for the winning side. You know a fellow’s ambition is to see if he can cat a pie and keep it down. Well, the losing side decided to let the boys fulfill their ambition March third. Ask any of the fellows how it feels to put a pie under his belt. Yes, we’re Ag. students, but not farmers of the “Dark Ages” any more than our lawyer friends. Russell Whipple Page Seventeen
